WORKING WITH THE COMPACT CRANE
U.C10.00.00.EN Version 2.0 39
Step-for-step
Switch on the machine with the key switch of the machine in position 1, for the drive and outrigger
functions.
Switch on and activate the remote control.
Set the outrigger angle of each outrigger leg, preferably to 45 degrees for 100% outrigger leg range.
Check the outrigger angle on the display of the remote control.
Operate the outriggers one at a time and lower them until they are horizontal so the outriggers can be more
easily extended. Maintain a clear view of the operated outrigger.
Set the outrigger length by fully extending the outriggers.
Check the outrigger length on the display of the remote control.
Operate the outriggers one at a time and lower the outrigger legs until they are just above the ground.
Maintain a clear view of the operated outrigger.
Place the outrigger pads under the outrigger feet so the outrigger foot falls in the recess of the outrigger
pad. Also check the ground in the immediate vicinity for unevenness, loose material, slope and other issues
that can affect the stability.
Operate the outrigger legs one at a time and lower them onto the outrigger pads.
Now operate the outriggers at the front simultaneously so the machine is just lifted off the ground; do the
same with the rear outrigger legs.
Check whether the machine is level and correct if necessary. The bubble in the spirit level must be in the
centre of the circle (see figure 32).
Check whether all the outriggers are in contact with the ground and correct if necessary.
Turn the key switch to position 2 once the machine is standing firmly on the outriggers; the outrigger
configuration is now set and is saved.
Check
Check the outrigger angle and length on the remote control display.
Check the levelling of the crane (see figure 32) crane after setting the
outriggers.
Make sure all the legs are in firm contact with the ground.
6.5.2 Operation
Mechanical
Release the outrigger legs by operating the lever, so the outriggers can
be swung manually (see figure 33).
Turn the outrigger legs so that they are positioned at a 45° angle to the
machine and then release the lever. The lever will spring back to its
released position automatically when it is in the correct position.
Turn the key switch (1) on the electrical cabinet to the ‘outrigger
operation/driving’ position.
